AEW Dynamite, Collision Results, Winners, Live Grades, Highlights After Double or Nothing 2026

Welcome to Bleacher Report's live coverage of the post-Double or Nothing episode of Dynamite and Collision on May 27.

This was another supersized episode thanks to the extra hour provided by Collision, and All Elite Wrestling made sure to address a lot of what happened at the pay-per-view.

Here's a look at what was advertised for Wednesday's show:

MJF celebrates becoming a three-time champion

Kevin Knight addresses his attack on Darby Allin

Chris Jericho vs. Ricochet with everyone banned from ringside

Hikaru Shida vs. Kris Statlander (Lights Out Street Fight)

Renee Paquette interviews Kyle Fletcher and Don Callis

Christian Cage and Adam Copeland celebrate winning tag titles with a 5-second post

Mark Davis vs. Jungle Jack Perry (Owen Hart Tournament)

Let's take a look at everything that happened on this week's Dynamite and Collision supershow.

Why, Kevin? Why?

The show opened with Will Ospreay having a quick interview backstage at Double or Nothing before heading into the trainer's room. He ran into Kenny Omega, who tried to talk to him about working with The Death Riders.

When we went live in the arena, Knight came to the ring to talk about why he turned on Darby Allin at Double or Nothing. The crowd was not happy to see him and chanted several things at him.

He said Allin let him down by losing to MJF, and he noted how he was the last one to beat MJF. The Jet's tag team partner, Mike Bailey, came out to confront him. Knight ended up taking him out with a running forearm strike. He looked like he regretted it for a moment, but then he picked Speedball up for a urinagi.

The crowd was great and gave Knight a ton of heat, but his promo was pretty paint-by-numbers. He gave exactly the kind of explanation we all expected, and he seemed a bit flustered at times.

Grade: C+

Notable Moments and Observations

The crowd chanted "F--k you, Kevin."

Insulting a local sports team is one of the oldest ways to get some cheap heat.

Ricochet vs. Chris Jericho

Last time in action: Jericho's team defeated Ricochet's team (Double or Nothing)

Ricochet and The Demand gave a quick interview backstage before he went to the ring for his match against Jericho. Y2J had the crowd cheering until Ricochet took him down to get the action started.

Rico dropped Jericho on the announce table and tried to suplex him on top of it, but the former world champion turned it into a Liontamer for a few moments.

Jericho's team came out ahead on Sunday, but Ricochet held three previous wins over him, so it felt like he still needed this win to put the feud to bed.

Ricochet can obviously run circles around Y2J at this point in his career, but they did a good job making it look like he could keep up with the leader of The Demand. He leaned into being the underdog instead of the wily veteran he has been for most of his AEW run as a heel.

Aubrey Edwards almost got caught in the crossfire, and it allowed Ricochet to hit a low blow, but he still couldn't get the win. They made the last couple of minutes the most exciting part of the match. Jericho scored the win with a Judas Effect followed by a Lionsault.

Tommaso Ciampa came out of nowhere and attacked the winner, so it looks like we know what the next feud is for both men.

Result: Jericho defeated Ricochet

Grade: B

Notable Moments and Observations

The graphic for his entrance only called him Jericho, and so did the ring announcer and commentators. It feels like he is trying to drop his first name and just have one like Cher or Madonna.

A standing shooting star press is impressive, but Ricochet almost makes it look too easy.

It feels rare that someone tries to win by countout in AEW. The way Ricochet did it worked well for this story.

Rush vs. Brian Cage vs. Orange Cassidy vs. Lio Rush

A Superstation Showcase Fatal 4-Way took place next with Rush, Brian Cage, Orange Cassidy and Lio Rush.

This match has a little bit of everything. Rush is the striker, Cage is the powerhouse, Lio is the high-flyer, and OC is the technician. The thing that allowed them to mesh their styles is that all four guys are also very versatile.

Cage was especially valuable in this bout because he is deceptively quick, and he can play a great base for everyone else's high-flying offense. He could probably lift all three of his opponents at once if he wanted to.

This was a fun, fast-paced match that definitely lived up to its showcase name by giving all four competitors ample opportunities to show off.

Rocky Romero, Lance Archer and Jake Doyle attacked and carried OC away from the match. El Toro Blanco ended up scoring the win with a pin over The Blackheart.

Result: Rush defeated Lio, Cassidy and Cage

Grade: B+

Notable Moments and Observations

It feels weird referring to Cassidy as a technician, but it's the most accurate description of his style.

It's shocking that none of the announcers have made a joke about Pee-Wee's Big Adventure when Rush has the black liquid coming from his mouth.

Rush and Cassidy had a fun comedic sequence.

MJF's Championship Celebration

MJF ran into Knight backstage and thanked him for what he did to Allin, but The Jet assured him that he is still coming after the world title.

When he came out for his celebration, the new champion was carried on a throne by four guys. He dropped the normal AEW title into a trash can at ringside because he had his Triple B version instead.

He gave his usual speech about being the best and bragged about being a three-time champion by the age of 30. He did not look happy when Mark Briscoe showed up and tore down his banner.

The Chicken said he has pinned MJF before and wants a shot at the world title. MJF turned him down and tried to leave, but Rush came out and said he isn't a fighting champion. MJF agreed to face him next week.

This was a solid segment. Having multiple people chasing the new champion right out of the gate makes the title scene feel more active.

Grade: B

Notable Moments and Observations

There was one fan booing who was way louder than everyone else.

MJF being confused by Briscoe was hilarious.

Claudio Castagnoli vs. Brody King

Last time in action: King lost to Allin (Dynamite, April 29), Death Riders defeated The Opps (Double or Nothing)

The Owen Hart Tournament continued this week with Brody King taking on Claudio Castagnoli. These two each hold a singles victory over each other, so this also served as a bit of a rubber match.

Both of these men can be described as powerhouses, but they do it in completely different ways. King is more of a brawler, while Claudio is much more technical in his approach.

They made this feel like a hard-fought match with a lot of heavy strikes. Castagnoli came close, but King prevailed to advance to the next round in the tournament.

Result: King defeated Castagnoli

Grade: B+

Notable Moments and Observations

Seeing someone overpower King would be weird if it was anyone but Castagnoli.

It's kind of cool how Claudio still wears his mask to the ring even though he is not the CMLL champion anymore.

For the Benefit of Those With Flash Photography

Cage and Copeland were greeted by chants of "You deserve it." Cage told them to sit down and shut up, but Copeland told him to enjoy the moment.

Cage put over FTR as one of the best teams to do it, and Copeland said they were dumb enough to agree to an I Quit match.

Copeland handed out a bunch of disposable cameras with flashes to fans around the ring. Before they could do their pose, David Finlay and Clark Connors attacked them from behind.

This was a pretty entertaining segment, but the attack at the end is what made it interesting. Finlay and Connors are perfect first challengers for the new champions.

Grade: B

Notable Moments and Observations

Cage continuing to be a jerk as a babyface makes him so much funnier.

Cage was selling his injured arm like he was dying. It was great.

TayJay vs. Ava Everett and Allie Katch

Last time in action: TayJay lost to Marina Shafir and Megan Bayne (Collision, Nov. 19)

Tay Melo and Anna Jay were in action against Ava Everett and Allie Katch. Much like Divine Dominion's recent matches, this was designed to get the contracted talents over by giving them a quick win.

While it's great to see effort being put into the women's tag team division, continuing to have such short matches is not going to help it grow. TayJay got an easy win in less than two minutes.

Result: TayJay won

Grade: Incomplete

Mark Davis vs. Jack Perry

Last time in action: Perry's team defeated Davis' team (Double or Nothing)

The second Owen Hart Tournament match to take place this week saw Davis take on the man he beat for the National Championship, Jungle Jack Perry.

Dunkzilla took control as soon as the match started, but Perry went after his injured eye to even the score. He even stole the eye patch and wore it for a bit.

This match was mostly Davis dominating while Perry kept making short comebacks. It felt like a one-sided fight most of the time, which played into Perry's natural underdog quality.

They were given a lot of time to work, so they were able to make this feel like a competitive fight. Perry put up a good effort, but Davis was too much for him in the end.

Result: Davis defeated Perry

Grade: B+

Notable Moments and Observations

AEW aired a video showing Perry running up the same steps as Rocky.

Davis had an eye patch after what happened during Stadium Stampede.

Perry's trio of dives was a nice sequence.

Davis suplexing Perry onto the apron was a great spot.

Will Ospreay and Death Riders vs. The Rascalz

Last time in action: The Rascalz lost to Davis and The Dogs (Collision, May 16), Ospreay defeated Samoa Joe (Double or Nothing), Moxley defeated O'Reilly (Double or Nothing)

Kyle Fletcher came out after Davis got his victory. He said he is fully cleared to compete again, and he made it clear he was coming after Konosuke Takeshita. When Takeshita showed up, he had The Conglomeration as backup.

Next up was Ospreay teaming with Jon Moxley and Pac to take on Zachary Wentz, Dezmond Xavier and Myron Reed. Ospreay didn't know Mox and Pac were going to jump their opponents, so he ended up trading takedowns with Xavier once everyone else was out of the ring.

The Aerial Assassin spent a lot of time being isolated from his teammates, but he was finally able to make a hot tag to Pac after the break.

All three members of The Rascalz ended up in submissions, which led to Ospreay and The Death Riders getting the victory.

Result: Ospreay, Mox and Pac defeated The Rascalz

Grade: B

Notable Moments and Observations

Pac refusing to fist-bump Ospreay was kind of funny.

Marina Shafir scared The Rascalz during their entrance.

Andrade El Idolo vs. Ace Austin

Andrade El Idolo put out an open challenge that was answered by The Bang Bang Gang's Ace Austin.

This match wasn't hyped ahead of time and felt like a pretty random addition to the card, but nobody is going to complain about getting to watch two talented performers work.

Even though this was a quick, fun contest, it felt like this time should have been allocated to the main event street fight, especially because the other women's match on the card was so short.

Austin had a good showing, but Andrade put him away with his finisher to get the win.

Result: El Idolo defeated Austin

Grade: B-

Notable Moments and Observations

Excalibur tried to throw to a commercial, and then nothing happened and the show kept going for about 30 seconds.

Hikaru Shida vs. Kris Statlander

Last time in action: Statlander and Shida lost to Thekla (Double or Nothing)

The final match between Shida and Statlander didn't even get started until the show was supposed to be over, so it was hard to tell how much time they would get since it was all in overtime.

Stat avoided shots from a kendo stick before taking her former friend down. Shida was the first to use a weapon successfully when she stole a chair from Statlander and hit her in the gut with it.

They fought to the backstage area and used whatever they could find to inflict damage. We returned from the final commercial break to see Statlander hit a superplex onto a pile of chairs.

This might not have been as bloody as some AEW matches of this kind, but they took a lot of big bumps and incorporated several different weapons, including a bundle of light tubes.

Stat was bleeding from her back after being hit with the light tubes, but that didn't stop her from putting Shida through a table with a tombstone. Once she got Shida in the ring, she hit her finisher for the pin.

Result: Statlander defeated Shida

Grade: B+

Notable Moments and Observations

Shida made some interesting choices for her outfit in this match.

The slingshot into the chair spot did not go as planned. Shida basically missed the chair.

The way Statlander kipped up out of a pin was incredibly cool.

The Final Word

This week's Dynamite was a solid show from top to bottom, but there is one major complaint to be had.

The way the women's division has been booked in recent months has been a big step down from where it was at the beginning of the year. Two matches across three hours is bad enough, but when one of them is less than two minutes long, it's an even bigger issue.

Statlander and Shida did a great job closing out the show with their Street Fight, but we didn't get any updates on the TBS title situation, or hear from the world champion who just successfully defended her title at the PPV.

There was a lot to like on this show, but AEW needs to rethink how it books its women going forward.

Grade: B
